Jonas Eidevall has watched back the tapes and crunched the numbers. He reckons 1-1 in the first leg was a fair result. But, crucially, the Arsenal coach also feels they have room for improvement in the second leg on Thursday and in a Champions League quarter-final that may be decided on the finest of margins that could just be enough.
It is nine years since Arsenal graced the semi-finals of the biggest club competition in women’s football. Lotte Wubben-Moy’s 89th-minute equaliser last week has made their task a good deal easier, particularly given away goals will not apply. But standing in their way is the green wall of Wolfsburg, a team in their own rhythm and winning groove, unbeaten in 14 competitive games and gracing Wolfsburg’s main VW Stadium for the first time since 2013.
